Spellstorm

Spellstorm

A re-imagining of the classic game Magestorm, fight in an all-magic battle arena as an archon pulled from time and imbued with fantastical powers in an eternal struggle between the 3 Primal Forces - Order, Balance, and Chaos. Fueled by increasingly powerful magic, defeat your foes and their shrines in this three team FPS battle arena.

All Magic

This is the ultimate mage battle fantasy. Push the front lines as an elemental Magician, ambush foes with lightning as the Tempest, defend your shrine with a storm of swords as the Paladin, or deny your enemies by harnessing mana and the void as the Arcanist.

Well Tuned Gameplay

Each class has a distinct playstyle and feel allowing all four to make game-winning plays.

Unique Combat

This is not a Crowd Control Simulator. Combat is aggressive, tactical, and merciless.

Gemini: Binary Conflict

Gemini: Binary Conflict

Welcome to Gemini! A binary planet system orbiting a red dwarf host star. You join us in the midst of a skirmish between the inhabitants of two worlds who are on the brink of all out war.

The Avians (an enlightened bird-like species) occupy the original homeworld, with their distant cousins, the Trivexians (an aggressive reptile species) inhabiting its twin. Both planets originally had temperate climates with resources to spare, and while the Avians had the foresight to maintain and protect their biosphere, the Trivexians were careless and greedy, reducing their world to an arid, almost lifeless desert.

As resources diminished, the Trivexians became envious of their Avian cousin’s world, with its tantalising oceans and luscious purple vegetation. Following a number of incursions to take back what they believed was rightfully theirs, the fighting ensued. Join the battle, pick a side, fight for a cause, and destroy the enemy.

‘Gemini: Binary Conflict’ is a multiplayer, class based, first person shooter set in an exotic environment with a bold visual style. In-game you will find some unconventional weaponry, equipment, armour, class roles and modes. The game aims to provide a subtle mixture of mechanics both familiar and unusual to create a unique and engaging gameplay experience.

Features:

  • Player class system, with an array of unusual weaponry and abilities, making each class truly unique.

  • A variety of PvP gamemodes up to 16 players, ranging from Free-for-all to our flagship mode, ‘Warpath’; push enemy lines aided by an army of AI droids, deploy support structures and strategise with your team to take down and capture enemy bases.

  • Co-op gamemode ‘Holdout’; up to 5 players stranded in enemy territory survive increasingly difficult waves of hostiles and boss encounters, whilst activating defences and power-ups to aid the completion of the objective: successfully repair the base.

  • XP / Unlock system, allowing players to level up their classes, unlock armour cosmetics and weapon / equipment sidegrades as they progress in-game.

  • Player customisation system, allowing expressive variety in-game. Players can choose any colour for armour and weapons, as well as individually swap armour pieces acquired in class progression.

  • Armour destruction system. Armour is not only customisable, but it actually protects individual parts of your body, both functionally and visually destructible, allowing for an extra layer of depth in combat.

  • An array of maps featuring visually bold and unique environments.

  • Fully fledged bot support. Bots capable of competing alongside you as if they were real players, taking objectives, using equipment, customising themselves, and taking advantage of their individual class strengths, on any gamemode.

Hero Team

Hero Team

Hero Team is a PVP 2D shooter with online and couch multiplayer, and modes inspired by the greatest classic shooters. It’s the spiritual sequel to the 2011 game Stick ‘Em Up 2, but with online play, super-tight controls, the speed cranked up to 11, and an abundance of maps, weapons, and upgrades.

Later this year Hero Team will be launching in Early Access.

What will be in the Early Access version?

  • online multiplayer with dedicated servers

  • local couch multiplayer for 2-4 players (with the option to play online together)

  • actual artwork by real-life artists instead of the basic-ass prototype art you see above

  • multiplayer modes inspired by the greatest multiplayer shooters, including:

    • bomb defusal

    • area control

    • team deathmatch

    • battle royale

  • a robust upgrade system with weapons and abilities that can be assembled in a multitude of combinations with meaningful game-changing effects

  • absolutely no pay-to-win ever: all upgrades are earned exclusively in-game

  • numerous characters which are customizable with free and premium paid cosmetic options

  • practice maps that are speedrunnable solo or co-op

  • all the quality of life features you’d expect like party support, private lobbies, and Discord integration (sorry that stuff isn’t ready for the Steam Game Festival build)

What’s coming after Early Access?

Regular drops of new maps, modes, characters, and upgrades to keep things minty fresh.

What’s the setting/lore?

It’s the mid-2040s, and these days the main threat in the world is IN Equity Inc. They started as a venture capital firm investing in exotic technology like human genome editing and hyperintelligence augmentation. When they got bored of the umpteenth ethics investigation against them, they went full supervillain and declared their offshore research base to be a sovereign “corporate state” under the ~benevolent~ leadership of the Board of Directors. Hero Team was formed as an elite international force to keep them in check, and are first on the scene whenever IN Equity are attempting to steal a nuclear reactor or executing a hostile takeover of a small nation.

Very Bad Game :( Looks like it’s incompleted.

Pros:

-Good Graphics.

-Cool Effects & Animation.

-Texture is perfect.

-So the only good thing is the Visual Quality & Graphics.

Cons:

-Mouse sensitivity is aweful, it’s either Very slow or very fast, no normal.

-The game connection is so slow, it’s very hard to connect to other players.

-There is no tutorial to tell you how to play the game, or how to use that ball in your hand.

-Zombies are very fast and strong in Zombie Mode.

-Some Settings are in the opposite way, like if you set full screen you get Windowed.

Tower Tag

Tower Tag

Where do I begin?

I have tried this game first time in an arcade. It was fun! But that’s pretty much it. When it came out on steam I thought why not? Price was half of what I paid for 90 minutes in the arcade and expected pretty much of the same chill shooter with random people. After 50 hours into this game, and 1 Official Tournament I cannot believe how wrong I was.

First let me tell you that this game is not just about jumping between towers and shooting other players. NO! This is one of the most intense and exciting e-sports game I have ever played! And definitely #1 for VR. This game requires tactic and teamwork that can put games like Onward to shame, combined with a faced paced game style that won’t let you take a breath till the end of the round.

I played Tower Tag for the first time years ago in a VR Arcade in my town and I was totally hooked from the first 10 seconds. This made me think about VR in a different way.

Every played Paintball? This will teleport you back into every habit you automated on the real field in seconds.

Never played Paintball? Doesnt matter, shoot em up - but be quick.

All you need is 1 controller, 2 buttons (shooting and teleport/heal) and 3 things on your mind: you can only win as a team, you need to communicate and you better bring water coz this thing will get you sweating in no time.

Live/Wire

Live/Wire

Theoretically, a promising setup for multiplayer matches. Gleaming neon, futuristic guns, and grappling hook to move on in the multi-leveled brick-glass-and plastic jungles.

But. It’s a multiplayer-only game without any player base. A synthetic creation, which will never be alive. The dead end. Mark is 4/10.

Real player with 7.2 hrs in game

Amazing game concept, could be much better with some development, if it was changed up a bit, add some standardised formatting with the UI could be an awesome game

Super Head Ball

Super Head Ball

Super Head Ball is an action-packed multiplayer game that pits two teams of warriors against each other as they fight to throw a decapitated head into a blazing pyre. With simple controls and 4-player local multiplayer, matches are fast, frantic, and intense. Join your friends and get ready to jump, double-jump… and die a lot as the bullets and heads fly. Turning the head into a weapon, bouncing it off walls, and using the arena to your advantage are the keys to success.

Pick Up & Play

Jump and Shoot are the only two buttons you need to get the hang of to enjoy Super Head Ball and start flinging heads into fires and at friends. The control scheme is simple to learn, but you’ll be mastering your double jumps, head bounces, gravity shots, and alley-oops for a long time to come.

Teamwork

Play as a team in 2v2 matches and work together to beat your friends! Pass, bounce, and alley-oop the head to your teammate as you aim to score before your opponents. Oh and try to avoid friendly fire if you can.

Unique Battle Arenas

Do battle in 20+ arenas spread across 3 environments that each provide their own crazy features. Between bouncing on head-eating frogs in the Temple or running on the ceiling in the Space Station there is a lot of room for fun experimentation!

Trick Shots

Style on your friends by finding the most creative ways to throw the head into the fire! You might not get any extra points, but it’s a great way to show off your mastery of the mechanics.
